[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 397890, member: 1991"] I'm wondering if the doctor applied the label because she was on risperdal... you know, "She takes X therefore she must have Y condition." Also with risperdal, since it is often prescribed for kids with ADHD but it is not specifically intended for them, doctors sometimes fudge the system by inventing a diagnosis to justify the prescription on paper, should they ever get investigated. We were actually asked if we wanted the doctor to do this, because if we had said yes, it's OK to give our boys a psychiatric diagnosis, then the risperdal would have been covered financially by Aussie health insurance. So don't panic, that might be all it is. Marg [/QUOTE]
